    School

    An answer in short 'NO' Too many variables to take into account ie, Risk assessments, insurance etc etc. It is very likely that your school isnt able to make the descision as this will belong to your local authority. If thats the case, not a feckin chance in the world.
  2. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/html/section...arsen-trap.html Courtesy of Big Fish Try using search matey, its a handy function. Its located at the top right of your screen.
  3. Your trap looks well, good job You need to address the issue of not harming your trapped quarry. Legally, So all spikes internally will need removing (cant make it out too well but the door has prongs bent inwards). It also needs de-burring. (all sharp edges removing). You could also do with replacing the cable ties holding it togeather, with something stronger and more appropriate, myself or john b can help you out there. These can be chewed. Hope you put it to use for more than just squirrels
  4. As far as your tree qualifications go, good luck, but dont be getting in above your head. Experience is a must. Get a bit of sub contracting done with a local firm ( day or so a week ), This will not only help you tick over financialy but will open your eyes to the crap tree jobs that are out there, and to what problems you can encounter. As you will. Are you doing any climbing? Getting a chainsaw and tackling the world isnt as clear cut ( lol no pun intended and not being funny but shit will go wrong, and you need to be prepared ) You dont want to drop a tree onto mrs smiths
  5. mick,,ha, did you think i was serious, i'm evo stick, all day long,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and i don't sniff it So thats what you tell everyone Look, forget your chemical anchors as good as they are, and certainly forget B & Q lol HLAH please take note!! Place your cabinet on the wall. Open the door. At the rear of the cabinet there will be some pre drilled holes for mounting. Take a marker pen,centre punch,bradawl whatever. Mark the holes. Remove the cabinet. Making sure to accurately drill the holes, level and with the correct size bit (masonary not wood or hss) Insert
  6. Willow will burn and it will split, just depends on what you are splitting it with It is a wet wood, so it will need a degree of drying. Depending on how hot your stove is burning, it will take the occasional wet lump. Dont let any go to waste!! Now the leaves have dropped all the wood is useable, although a little time consuming. Cut up the branches and tip ends to dry for kindling. The rest is only worth as firewood. If the girth of the trunk is relatively knot free, you should split it with ease with a 5lb+ axe. The rest that you cant is saw fodder!! With it being the weeping
  7. you are on the list Nice one Dont mind what or where it is. If its free then i will have it.
  8. Oh feck it, Go on then, if there is some permission going somewhere then i will have some too PLEASE. Pretty please??
  9. How is it easier to fit than a normal bolt fixing?? You still have to mark and drill four holes, then fill it whatever you decide.
  10. Is it worth paying all the extra cash out for a chemical anchor??
  11. I am sure that the fao would prefer your cabinet to be secured to the wall as opposed to the timber (if given the choice) There are multiple masonary anchors you could use, ranging from hammer fixings (plastic wallplug type) to rawl fixings (bolt type) The latter i would suggest, somewhere in the range of 12-15mm should do the trick Four of them bad boys in the back of your cabinet and it aint going anywhere in a hurry.
  12. The idea has always been there mate, and as mackem says it is very common. It is illegal to snare birds in the uk. There are some wierd and wonderfull bird snaring techniques, which some involve very elaborate set ups. Multi hooped roost branches. Baited snares, both branch/perch set and ground set. The list goes on. Natural glue made from tree resins can also be used to glue birds to their roost perches. Have a good old search on the tinterweb, im sure you will find something that makes for good reading
  13. I belive stubby made it. All you need is some mesh or a ready made cage, some bob wires (from john b ), a little fettling and your away. I knocked this one up from an old dog cage.
  14. Oh jack Is there anything else you are hiding, that you feel we should know At least you can have a wee dram Feckers
  15. Yeah right Seen nessie, ive heard it all now
  16. Not necessarily, rain doesn't always fall horizontally. If it's windy the driving rain could blow into the hutch and leak into the bedding area. I've had to protect a hutch from such an occurence in the past. The area amongst the trees may also mean that this chap can get a bigger cage as opposed to another area like the side of his house or shed. Fair point, but you seem to misunderstanding my reply. If a little more information was provided in the first place and a clearer point was made as to the available space he has , then i may have been able to provide a more forthcomi
  17. Buster, I love you But lets get back on track,( you can pm me if if you wish to take it to the next level ) Although i didnt give a detailed account of why the hw98 was a good rifle, I will if so needed, it may not be as full of vitals as yours. Like a gorgeous model :kiss: What i am getting at is maybe a little more is needed to back up a statement, other than " yes mate that gun is ace!!" Why? What sets it appart from the other rifles suggested? So this would be a good choice because?? Buster, you need not reply
  18. agreed i have one and it easily one of, if not the best SPRING powered rifle you can buy Please explain why?
